Additional Pet Boarding

In addition to cats and dogs, our team are happy to look after a variety of small pets.

We have hutches to house guinea pigs, birds and rabbits, as well as temperature-controlled terrariums for reptiles. You can rely on our team to accommodate the particular dietary requirements your pet has. Your most welcome to bring your own enclosure for your pet if they are more comfortable there.

We regularly clean our terrariums, handling your reptile with the utmost care. You are more than welcome to supply your lizard's preferred diet.
